"H. HIS. Practical Immortality

A neat publication in magazine form, entitled
Ramona Days" has been received. 1t is the
third number OF publication issued quarterly
by the Indian department of the University of
New Mexico. Those who have read the cbarmin 2
story of IRA mona," by the lamented Mrs. Fl. II.
Jackson (''H HI. will recognize the name in
the title of this little magazine The school in
whose interest it is issued is named in honor of
Mrs. jackson, the Ramona Indian Girls
School" 1t is located at Santa Fe, n. NJ. and
is devoted to educating young Indian girls of the
Southwest principally Apaches. The managers
of the school are now engaged in erecting new
building of unique design which will cost $780,
OO0 and accommodate ono hundred and fifty
pupils. A feature of it is memorial room to
Mrs jackson, which will be finished and
furnished with special view of perpetuating
her memory. Ramona Days" contains evil
dence that the school is accomplishing practical
results in the way of educating young Indians,
and is worthy OF public sympathy and support
1t is under the management of the Rev. ID. o.
Ladd, who is also president of the University OF
New Mexico, at Santa Fe, and any person desir-
ing to assist so worthy and interesting an en-
terprise can correspond with him. An
article in Ramona Days. entitled Seeking
Pupils in an Apache Camp" gives some pleasant
elimpses of mountain scenery and still life
among the Indians that read like notes of
foreign travel. The writer is lady, and some
extracts may he read with interest

MINOR MENTION.

A MAN was arrested in Boston few days ago
for pounding hotel clerk. The evidence showed
that he and the clerk had unpleasantness re-
speeding the assignment of a room, aud that
subsequently he attacked the clerk and treated
him pretty roughly. The clerk said the attack
ing party tried to gouge his eye out and did
partly cut one off. OF course this was con-
trary to law and to the peace and dignity of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Hotel clerks
are citizens and entitled to.the protection Of
the law much plumbers book-agents
The fact that they generally accorded by
public opinion a position of superiority and de-
gree of Difference not accorded to any other
class, does not remove them from the pale of the
law. Killing co.el clerk is murder. and pound
ing one is assault and battery, the in
the of ordinary citizen. The defn-
ton of the law in this regard must be strenuous
~ insisted on. otherwise hotel clerks would
soon be exterminared. This seems to have been
the view taken in Boston, for the defendant in
the case referred to was sentenced to a months
Imprisonment in the county Jail Con sidering
the satisfaction he had had he probably accept
ed the sentence cheerfully.
THE most interesting portion Of the report Of
the board of control of the Indiana Reform
School for Boys is the paragraph relating to the
services of John G. Blake. the retiring chaplain.
For nearly eight years he has devoted his at
tention to doing good among the boys of that
institution, and the result OF his labors
never be known in this world He has proven
himself friend of many boy both at school
and here in Indianapolis; and his quiet infiu-
ence, cheering words and personal efforts have
always helped the unfortunate little fellows
along towards honorable manhood. His election
as superintendent CT the Predetermined institu-
ton takes him away from work that he was
singularly well fitted for, and probably widens
his field of benevoient labor, but what he has
accomplished at Plainfeld will always stand as
a monument to his goodness Of heart. The
board has appreciated his services and
knowledeed them, and the tribute is a we'll
merited one.
